Answer:

D

Explanation:

For any event A is always true


P(A)+P(\overline {A})=1

So, option A is true. From this equality,


P(A)=1-P(\overline{A})\\ \\P(\overline{A})=1-P(A)

So, options B and C are true too.

Option D is not always true. The equality


P(A)+1=P(\overline{A})

is true only for event A, for which
P(A)=0

The equality


P(\overline{A})+1=P(A)

is true only for event A, for which
P(\overline{A})=0

So, this option is not true for all events A.
